Archduke

‘Maybe the world don’t have to end at all. We can just get off the train… go get a sandwich.’

Belgrade, 1914. Three hungry young men are offered something to eat (and the chance to change the course of history).

Their mission: kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand and set the century alight.

A wild, heartfelt and occasionally accurate tale of history’s most reluctant radicals, from Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph (Guards at the Taj, Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo). Lyndsey Turner (The Crucible, 1536) directs this European premiere, designed by Es Devlin (The Lehman Trilogy).
